Much in demand as an act, Alistair Barrie has forged a reputation for himself as one of the top comperes to emerge in recent years. His deceptively friendly and engaging stage presence masks a sharp, dry wit which can be turned to subjects as diverse as suicide bombers in the Middle East to the perils of flying EasyJet.

Despite a fondness for topical material, any performance is likely to be peppered with some inspired silliness and a little audience-related improvisation.

'Eloquent, slick and dynamic' (http://www.Chortle.co.uk)

'One of the circuit's classiest stand ups’ (London is Funny)

'Smart, slick and truly funny. Don't take my word for it, check him out yourself’ (Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke)

'Barrie has a casually sardonic sense of humour and is sharp as a guillotine blade. Woe betide the bloody fool who tries to heckle him' (Cape Town Argus).

Hirsute, hectoring and hilarious, Ben Schofield has performed to audience and critical acclaim at comedy venues across the British Isles. An accomplished act and MC, he marries a distinctive animated delivery with a scatologically cerebral comic voice and a keen eye for the absurd. He boastfully maintains the unique record of being the only comedian ever - as far as he is aware, or is reasonably likely - to have written a joke about galvanising dustbins (and a rather good one at that). This stands as testament to his ability to mine comedy gold from even the most unlikely of seams.

A friendly and energetic act, whose quality one-liner gags and upbeat persona liven up any night, Spiky Mike is founder of Funhouse Comedy and resident compere at all the clubs, as well as performing paid gigs at clubs around the country for respected promoters such as Agraman and Mirth Control.
